Chelsea legend John Obi Mikel trolled after he posts fake Ruben Neves quote to Instagram

JOHN OBI MIKEL was trolled  after he posted a fake Ruben Neves quote to Instagram.

A Chelsea fan account on Twitter called @ThatMunichNight made up a quote six months ago from the Wolves midfielder.
A post shared by Mikel Obi (@mikel_john_obi) on
The fake Neves quote read: "At Porto all midfielders were given DVDs of Mikel to take home and study every day.

"We used to call him the 'professor of football.'"

Believing in-demand midfielder Neves had actually studied his defensive playing style along with the rest of his ex-Porto team-mates, Mikel said: “I am honoured.”

And after the prank eventually worked, the Blues fan account revealed others also fell for the troll and shared it as a genuine quote.

He tweeted: “The funniest part about this is the fact the accounts I expected to blindly copy and present it as legit news did the exact same thing.”

Mikel lifted three Premier League titles and also won the Champions League at Stamford Bridge during his 11-years as a Blue.
